Default Predator is heading to the shop Tuesday.

Well I finally checked my Predator to see if I had the brake issue alot of others are having and wouldn't you know I spin the wheel hard and it stops after 1/3 of a revolution.

The dealer sad he never heard of this problem. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Oh great! He said to try backing of the brake adjuster on the back of the Caliper to see if that would help. Either way I'm running out of time and I better not be without a machine for the 11th 12th and 13th of next month. I have been looking for this for too dang long!!!

I figure the brake issue is whats causing the rear to feel light and loose at higher top speeds when you accelerate. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]


They will also be looking at my Greese zert issue. LOL Yea I know easy fix but I'll let them do it for me. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

2 weeks from Friday and I'll be in 7th heaven if my ATV is good to go.

Yeah! YEah! what recall notice?!?! I talked to my dealer today and they had no clue about it and seemed as if they were almost trying to convince me that the wheels not spinning much was a good thing. damn idiots. I have a hunch that if it was their machine they might feel the same way i do and want it fixed. anyway, i have springs in mine as a temp fix for now. Hopefully i can straighten my dealer out.

The recall was to make sure the caliper bolts were torqued correctly. It said nothing about the brakes dragging.
